Heat pipes are widely used in thermal management due to their high heat transfer
coefficient. However, traditional heat pipes conduct heat bidirectionally, depending on the …

Tesla valve is check valve with no-moving-part, which cannot completely suppress reverse
flow but has better reliability and flexibility than check valve with moving-part. Diodicity is …

Microfluidics has enabled a revolution in the manipulation of small volumes of fluids.
Controlling flows at larger scales and faster rates, or macrofluidics, has broad applications …

A new Tesla-type valve is successfully designed for promoting circulation in a pulsating heat
pipe (PHP) and improving the thermal resistance. Its functionality and diodicity is tested by …

Multi-stage Tesla valves in the reversed flow state can be applied during the hydrogen
decompression process between the high pressure hydrogen storage vessel and the fuel …

Microvortices are emerging components that impart functionality to microchannels by
exploiting inertia effects such as high shear stress, effective fluid diffusion, and large …

The use of Tesla valves for flow control and rectification in mini and microfluidic applications
is appealing due to their passive operation and no-moving-parts design. The effectiveness …

The Tesla valve is a passive-type check valve used for flow control in micro-or minichannel
systems for a variety of applications. Although the design and effectiveness of a singular …

Tesla valve is a particular check valve that can be used as a fluidic diode, but has no moving
parts, and shows promising applications in macro-and microfluidic systems. Fluidic diode …

This study proposes a new near zero-wear non-contact self-impact seal based on the
passive fluid blocking principle and the Tesla valve structure, which is characterised by near …
